Actually the system works in part - if you mis-spell a word and secondary-click on it it does offer corrections, if you spell it correctly it will offer to look it up.

There would, of course be a major problem if mis-spelt words were underlined - one section of the user base would be constantly reminded that there should be a u in Saviour and honour along with many instances of the errant z.

No more than in any other program. Mac's spell-checker uses British or American or whatever English you have set in your system preferences.

And why do you say "if ... were"? They are underlined if you've chosen to have them so.

Everyone knows that the correct spelling is "savior." The Brits simply haven't learned to write English yet.

From what I understand, spell check is off by default system-wide. That's how Apple has designed it. See the end of this article: http://www.macworld.com/article/151504/2010/05/setupanewmac.html. You have to turn it on in individual applications (Textedit, Safari, etc.) whenever you do a completely clean install of Mac OS (and you don't migrate your User Account settings). So Logos is apparently just following Apple's lead here.

Looks like I have to turn this feature on for each and every note. Is there a way to turn it on globally for all notes in Logos?

This is what I'd like to see. It would be great to have the ability to turn this on globally for Logos and not have to turn it on each time I write a note. The same would be true for a global setting to turn it off for those who prefer not to use it.
